Introducing Fixtor: An easy-to-use, reliable, full-featured physics fixture editor, for GameMaker: Studio 1 ~ 2.3+.

As a fixture editor, Fixtor aims to overcome the fixture limitation of Box2D physics.

You can now have as many concaved polygons as you want, as well breaking through the 8-point limits.
You can even add more than one circle within a fixture!

Not just that, Fixtor aims to best the built-in fixture editor, by bringing you these powerful functions:

Main Features

A simplified workflow, but with powerful tools to speed-up your creating efficiency:

  • Anchor-point-based transformation, includes moving, rotating and scaling your selected nodes.
  • Load an image file for tracing reference, or use auto-trace to save time!
  • Fast & clear node group management, lets you work with infinite sub-polygons with ease.
  • Mirror flip all the selected nodes horizontally / vertically with one key.
  • Snap nodes to a customizable grid, or lock their moving axis to one.
  • A rotatable symmetry ruler, to help you build symmetric shapes twice as fast.
  • Essential editing functions, such as copy, paste, undo and redo.
  • See how your polygon will behave before you put it into your project, by starting a physics simulation.
  • Save / Load your Fixtor projects.


Once you finished building your fixture, it can then generate an easy-to-setup script, containing the fixture you've made, along with some additional functions:

  • Lets you mirror flip the fixture at runtime, so you don't have to make an additional flipped fixture for your sprites anymore.
  • You can pass a set of coordinate offsets to the script, to modify the fixture origin point at runtime.
  • Change the current fixture to another; All you need to do is calling the new fixture script you want.


The asset itself is a Windows software, it can only be run in Windows Operating System. 

The script generated by this asset can be imported and work with every GameMaker: Studio iterations (GMS 1, GMS 2 and GMS 2.3+) and every platform versions of them.

This asset can only work with Box2D (The built-in physics engine for GMS 1, GMS 2 and GMS 2.3+)

Hi again, just wanted to say this is the tool I really needed and still i think its so amazing, if you have any kind of other tools for box 2d and game maker please release, I buy them all.

I've just downloaded this, and it looks good, but I wish there was a tutorial about how to use the script that is outputted by the program in a Gamemaker project

Hey, don't know if this helps (or for anyone else who might read it), but once you output the script, create a script in gamemaker and paste the text there. (the whole script is basically a big function). then, in the create event of the object you want to apply the script to, call the function you've created. Hope this helps!
